you are aware, just letting you know, you can just it's okay, but just for transparency. So, this also did test positive for meth. Now, I will say that is extremely positive and it's >> What starts as a routine traffic stop quickly becomes a paperwork nightmare and then takes an unexpected turn. The deputies are focused on suspended plates and registration issues, but the occupants nervous behavior is already raising questions. And before long, that simple traffic stop is about to become a much bigger investigation. >> I don't know about your license, but it says mandatory insurance violation. >> I know I didn't know that. >> I know. >> Wait. I can hear you. >> You guys having tire problems? >> Yes. >> Yeah. >> It's going what? >> My um Secretary of State going to inspect my plate. >> Okay. Yeah, it's it's from the state. So, they'll send you a letter. They'll Yeah, they'll send you a letter in the mail saying that you have to mail in proof of insurance. If you don't provide insurance, they'll send your plate. >> Is it through Green County, do you know? They just did that. >> I have no idea. Usually through Secretary of State. >> Well, but I mean the ticket's through Green County. >> Oh, did you get a ticket for it recently? >> I had I forgot insurance. >> Okay. Well, have you guys got your licenses and insurance and all that stuff? Are you okay? You're you're shaking like a leaf. >> I am. I'm fine. I'm freaking hot. >> Okay. >> I've had it up on my phone.

Have you got your ID on you? >> Yeah, I do. >> Hey, what's your birthday? >> 7/25/1981 >> Has your address changed or anything? >> No. That address The license says I have a warrant in Missouri. >> You what? >> The license says I have a warrant in Missouri for parking in a handicap spot. It wasn't me. I sold the vehicle. They kept the plates on it. >> You don't have a paper copy of it? >> No, I only have it on but I do have it. I only have it on >> Next time you're able to pull it up, take a screenshot of it. That way you don't have to >> looking for. I did, but it's not letting me load my pictures up. >> Oh. How are you guys doing as far as as far as drug stuff? Are you both still clean? >> I used to smoke weed. >> Oh well, that don't count. Um is there anything illegal in the vehicle? And I'm not worried about like pot. We're not the We're not the pot police. Um you guys mind if we check? >> Yeah, I don't mind. >> All right. Any particular >> every freaking time you pull us over. You think that? Actually no, it's all right to say no, right? >> Yeah, yeah. I mean in in >> Well, do you recall the the one time that we we stopped you both and >> We got called Yeah, somebody called the agency and had an orange >> No, it was it was a traffic stop, but it was in your purse, remember? >> Yeah, but that was whenever somebody called us in. >> Well, I just So and the reason I I'm not like bringing that up to bring up bad times, but that's that would be the reason why we would ask. >> but you guys ask us every time. It's like it's harassment. >> Well, I'm sorry you feel that way, but you know, at the end of the day we got a job to do too. >> No, I understand and I mean I'm not mad about it. >> She So she's trying to get her insurance pulled up and she still hasn't been able to pull it up. >> Sorry. My daughter's had my phone. >> Oh. >> She opened up the TikTok stuff on here and >> No, you're fine. Like the Are your photos in the cloud or something? Is that why they're not saved to your actual phone? >> you know, it's just out of memory and so it just syncs to my phone, my Google photos. >> Uh-huh. >> Which is not my actual phone. >> Uh-huh. Yeah. Like I said, you take a screenshot, put it in your actual like to your camera roll. The tire looks all right. I mean >> Well, it was sitting by the sensor off and I the air in it wasn't on. I didn't want to put too much in it. Wah, wah, wah, wah. >> Uh-huh. >> Uh County, you state that's coming back to a Chrysler uh to Heather >> Yeah, Ford returning an expired license plate to Heather Ross, Jersey bill, 2007 Chrysler utility. >> They swapped the plates. It's coming back to a a utility vehicle, to a Chrysler. I was about to write this, but hold on. Hey, can I see your registration, please? The The plates are coming back to a Chrysler. >> That's my old vehicle. It keeps doing that. >> Yeah, can I see your registration? >> sold me this car. Well, >> Well, see, the plates are expired back in '24. >> Um I transferred them. I transferred my plates. >> Yeah, if you don't mind, we'll we'll do a VIN check as well to make sure, but that's why I wanted to see your registration. >> My brother sold me this vehicle. My other brother bought this for me. It's my other brother. >> When was that? >> Um that was all online. Was it February? February. >> So, cuz the plates come back to you. >> Yeah, to my old vehicle, but I transferred the plates. >> Okay, so whenever your brother had the vehicle, it was registered to you still? >> It was registered to him. It was registered to him. I bought it. >> Okay, yeah, but these plates come back to you. >> It's my old vehicle. It's my other vehicle. >> Wait, you took the plates off your old vehicle, put them on here? >> I did all my transferring. >> You did that, and you did all this online, you said. Okay, well, if you can find the registration. So, right now, you're driving around with the wrong plates on your car, which can get it towed. And it's better to get caught with no plates on your car than the wrong plates on your car. Does that make sense? >> Yeah, but I did it all online. I transferred these plates. >> That title right there. Can I see that? >> I'm just going to bring you the title. >> Okay. Is this what you guys were nervous about? So, when I So, when we rolled up, you guys were shaking like leaves. Like, is this what you were worried about this whole >> I don't know what you're talking about with this. >> No, I mean, like the plate thing. Like, is that what what all the nervousy was about? >> The nervousy is about what you guys are doing right now. >> Okay. And you don't have any registration in there at all? >> don't have any registration. All the paperwork I have. >> Okay. Yeah, she said that they filed an uh for a lost title And and she transferred the plates over online. So, I'm not buying it. >> No, I'm not. I'm not either. My insurance? >> Huh? >> You want my insurance? >> Okay, what does that beg for you? >> You need to sign this. So, right now so because you have this right now and it's not signed, it means it's open title, which means you're actively committing a felony. And and for reference, >> you guys ever buy a car and you don't sign it and you get caught, it is a class four. >> Class four what? >> Yes, because it's it's it's considered tax evasion. Apart from that, do you guys have anybody that would be able to come pick you guys up? >> Wait, I got to go to work. >> Well, we have to take the plates by minimum. Not only that, so the plates are suspended, they come back to a different vehicle. We'll have to take the plates. I don't know who told you it was okay to put those plates on the vehicle, but that's not that's not the right thing to do. And if you are going to drive with the wrong plates or no plates on the car, drive with no plates on the car. You can still get towed. However, it's a lesser charge. Does that make sense? >> Would you have any issue with her us throwing her cleaning [ __ ] in like the trunk? That way she can take her work stuff with her for a ride home. >> I have to go to work. Like I have to no matter who picks me up, I still have to go to work. I have my own cleaning business. >> Well, yeah, that's fine cuz we have to tow the car because of this the circumstances of which you guys are driving. >> What if these people give me permission to leave it here? >> We already called a tow truck, they're on the way. That's why I'm saying if you have anything out of here do you want to get out of here that you need that absolutely need to work? >> My whole car's full of my cleaning stuff. I seriously I mean all my cleaning stuff. >> Well, I'll tell you what. Can can you guys hop out, please? >> Can I grab my stuff? >> Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We'll cram as much stuff as we can as long as we can keep the the trunk closed. >> I I know if we can fit it all. We can try, but you may have to to pick what all we can fit, but I got all most of my [ __ ] out of here. Now, you're not you're not putting any bombs or plastic explosives in our trunk, are you? She's She's a classic. >> I can't answer you that cuz I do have a bunch of chemicals I could be selling. >> Oh, no. Well, that's kind of scary. >> Yeah, I'll take the cool things in here somebody might want to take. >> I mean, I doubt I mean, the vehicle's going to be locked up in in the yard. >> Do you know the guy though, the tow truck driver? Do you know him at all? >> I know that we use them and they're professional service. I mean, I wouldn't be worried about anything, but I have to do an inventory. Huh? Uh it's a mirror with a baggy. Something. >> not mine. >> It's the first time. >> I promise you it's not mine. >> Yeah, I don't even know what it is. >> And there it is. The moment the entire stop takes another turn. The deputies locate an item they suspect may contain drug residue and suddenly the earlier nervousness looks a lot more significant. But suspicion isn't the same thing as proof, which is why the field test becomes so important. >> Yeah, whatever we whatever we say we don't care about weed, we we really don't care about weed, man. >> I'm going to get this out of here. >> It's going to be a positive for methamphetamine. So, they're both positive for meth, both the baggy and the uh mirror. >> So, was there anything in it? >> Yeah, so both I field tested both of them and they both test positive for meth. >> There was stuff inside of it? >> Yeah. >> I pro- I promise you that on my kids, that is not my stuff. >> If you were to hold on. Um I'm going to step aside and talk with you real quick. If you were to provide like a like a urine test, would you come up positive for methamphetamine? >> No. >> You'd say you'd be clean? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> So, honesty time. Is there going to be anything in the bags that are now in our trunk? >> No, it's all the clean stuff. >> Okay. Is this your bag, Heather? Okay. See all the crystals? Looks pretty crystallized. >> What's uh >> All right, just just so you are aware, I'm just letting you know. You can just It's okay, but just for transparency. So, this also did test positive for meth. Now, I will say that is extremely positive, and it's more than likely going to come back positive as meth. But, these are just field test kits. This is going to get sent off to the crime lab, where they will actually analyze it, and they'll be able to say whether it was actually meth or amphetamine. >> So, I can be charged with this? >> If it comes back as methamphetamine, >> from the crime lab? >> Probably. >> So, you you think >> not going to be the one doing it. It's going to be up to the state's attorney. So, yeah, so you you'll hop in with us.
